Adding Chia Seeds (Optional)

If desired, sprinkle chia seeds over the final layer of berries for an extra boost of nutrients.

Sweetening (Optional)

FAQ

  • Can I use frozen berries?

    Yes, you can use frozen berries. However, they might release some liquid as they thaw, which could make the parfait slightly watery. Thaw them slightly before using or drain excess liquid.
  • Can I substitute the granola with something else?

    Yes, you can substitute granola with other crunchy toppings like chopped nuts, seeds, or coconut flakes.
  • Can I store the parfait in the refrigerator?

    It's best to assemble and serve the parfait immediately. If you need to prepare it in advance, store it in the refrigerator for no more than a few hours to prevent the granola from becoming soggy.
